Managing Matches and Match Exceptions

The Voucher Match Error Notification process generates a list of invoices containing match errors for buyers and suppliers. If an invoice is not successfully matched, exceptions are presented to buyers who can access the invoice, who can then override, place on hold, or leave the invoice unchanged. Only users who have been set up to override match exceptions at the user preferences level can override exceptions; all other approvers can review only. Invoice lines that contain match exceptions are presented to the respective line approvers for review as well. Users can override match exceptions if they are set up to do so on their user preferences.

In addition to match exception notifications, you can access matches and match exceptions from the following pages:

  • Review Match Exceptions - Inquiry page from the Buyer Dashboard.

  • Review Invoices - Invoice Inquiry page.

  • Review Invoice Lines - Invoice Lines and Distributions page.

  • Review Payment Installments - Inquiry page.

This section lists the pages used to manage matches and match exceptions.
